Touches of gold mimic the inspiration. I'll be "showering" my layouts with more goodies than shown here as the month goes on. I was having trouble gathering things that "worked" so I may have to take my lead from the specific layout I'm working on at the moment.

And the papers...

Classic papers from My Mind's Eye, Basic Grey and Authentique feel like the right fit for me. The yellow and blue combination is a favorite of mine.

Let's welcome our guest designer, Kelly! We are so happy you are playing along with us this month.

Be sure to hop along (and jump through rain puddles, too!) to all of the other Master Forgers.

Now I must go and bring in those supplies as rain and PAPERcrafting supplies don't mix!

I like that you picked what appealed to you from the inspiration kit and used that as the basis for your kit. Yellow and blue is always a lovely and versatile combination. You've got some pretty letter options too. Hope you enjoy the month!

I'd love to have seen your neighbours' faces when you were outside taking these photos! Great presentation as always and a lovely kit with just the right amount of blue and yellow. I'm late commenting but I did drop by and admire this early in the month! The gold touches are perfect and I agree about allowing yourself the chance to add things in during the month - mine changes a lot between putting it together and finishing it off!

About Me

I am a stay at home Mom of 2 great kids and wife to an extremely supportive husband who makes candy for a living. It's a sweet life! My love of scrapbooking was reignited when, on a total whim, I signed up for the Layout A Day Scrapbooking challenge back in October 2010. I transformed from a scrapbook supply collector to a scrapbook supply user and the result? Hundreds of amazing pages capturing my life story. Thanks for following my scrapbooking journey.
